haven’t heard fingertips yet but from what i’ve gathered, if you spend 10+ hours a day on tiktok this song is not for you

Or perhaps if stream of consciousness/conversational/freestyle lyrics & delivery with minimalistic production isn't your thing.
 

You don't have to be a braindead Tik Tok user to not vibe with the song. You can appreciate artistic input without being overwhelmed.

I will only listen to Sweet & The Grants for now and leave Fingertips for the release date

Because this song looks promising and i think it deserves to be listen when the whole album is out.

 

You're not wrong. Similar to Honeymoon for me, each of these songs are amazing individually, but when listened to together as a whole, i think it will take the experience of each song to a whole new level. So like Honeymoon, but i think this will apply even moreso to this album.

Wrong. If you don't vibe with Fingertips, it means you're dead inside and that you need to book an appointment with a therapist ASAP

im gonna take that too with me

 its a beautiful life
remember that too, for me.

One of the only ways I can describe the leaked songs is enchanted. They truly sound magical, like you're on a unicorn trotting through a mystical forest to save the love of your life. It's a Lana Del Rey fairy tale. 

I agree. I just know "Grandfather please stand on the shoulders of my father while he's deep-sea fishing" is going to blow me away. I will not listen to tagged version, but I envision a world where every person in the world is hunched down at Lana's grandfather's feet whispering their wishes like a wishing well wishing that Grandfather please stand on the shoulders of my father while he's deep-sea fishing gets played on a global intercom system on repeat for the remainder of eternity, God bless

I'm going to wait to listen,

Spoiler

Mostly because I'm technologically disabled 🤫

[Let the Light In 18,669]

I haven’t listened to songs. I’m waiting for full and in order experience.

 

I’ve only listened to Ocean Blvd and A&W 5 or 6 times after their release too.

 

So let’s see how it will turn out.

This is not personal or directed towards you or anything but at some point we need to give this anti-Tik-Tok speech a rest because it’s very much giving boomer energy back when most of us got into Facebook and then migrated to Instagram. I know dozens of people who are very much into TikTok AND are perfectly able to enjoy art expressions that are dense and complex. These two things aren’t mutually exclusive and I wish people stopped with this morally superior stance because it’s unnecessary painting young(er) people as idiots and I think we all remember how alienating and isolating that feeling was when older people did the same to us. 

 

The people who won’t be able to get into the wordier parts of this album are the same breed of people who never got into Fiona Apple, Björk, Tori Amos, Kate Bush, et al - they always existed, regardless of whatever social media they’re on and even before social media was even a concept. And that’s ok. We can’t all appreciate everything at the same time or with the same dedication. Let’s just stop shading people for no reason because it’s making us sound bitter and like the people from previous generations that we (still?) resent.

It's a shame that we die 

 

[one time beauty queen 18,411]

on one side there’s a lot to be said obviously but on another there’s not a lot to be said when the music says it all. like just stop and listen. one of if not THEEEe greatest songwriters of this generation. it’s been knew, but this has just further cemented n solidified it., it’s so kind & brave of her to let us (& the whole world for the matter) in on these beautiful, bittersweet life stories. there’s a lot to take and learn from it all - a very wise woman indeed. I’m just grateful really, we are beyond lucky. 

 

Spoiler

in Sweet she sings “cause that’s the best method the women here taught me about” & we could dedicate that line to Lana for so many reasons
